Feeling Optimistic - Day 10
language, chai, education, lunch, hiv/aids with a great man and his fro and mutton chops, beer at equeta with jon and sara, steve and stephanie.
yesterday my baba drove his car to a different spot. i thought he was going out to the store or something. i was going to go with him, so i got in, buckled up, and he moved the car about 20 feet. misunderstanding. hillarious.
my swahili is improving each day. i can converse fairly well (with the help of a dictionary) when i am at home. different in the real world, however.
i feel proud of myself today. this is the first time i have ever committed to something for two whole years. college was different. it was more of a location. not a major or class or anything. this is a committment to a job for two years. great practice for the future. i have never stuck with anything that long and that consistently. nothing as consistent as this will be. a full time job in every way. one that took me around the world and far away from my girlfriend and life. i miss it. but i am proud of myself today. you can do it, eric. serve someone, something.
